Automotive Feature: Ruby Racing Talon TSi

Drag Racing is a hell of a sport. Blood, sweat, and tears go into the cars that these race teams and drivers build. The Summer track days can be hot; fire suits and helmets aren’t the most comfortable in 90 degree weather. Windows up, no AC. The adrenaline rush from those several seconds down the track is worth it all.

Today’s feature is the Ruby Racing Eagle Talon TSi. Dave Ruby, RIX Racing, and his team have built one hell of a track machine. The car performed flawlessly at this year’s Buschur Racing DSM, EVO, GT-R Shootout. Running well after midnight with excellent weather and track conditions, Dave brought home the first place trophy. Number one out of the top 32 qualifiers in his class.

Green AWD Terror

Check out this one tearing up the drag strip at the Buschur Racing DSM/EVO Shootout. Green. AWD. Fast. I’ve been in this car. Like most AWD cars with an absurd amount of horsepower, it does what I call the AWD dance. All four wheels are kind of pulling the car in each direction and it wants to jump around on the road during launch. Much fun.
